okay so my cars out of warranty now, and I'm wondering whether to upgrade by either a new car, or a remap.
Anyone have any experience of an 335xd remap and recommendations?
Googling the internet gives some wild claims about the car with remaps to 440hp which I think would last two seconds before giving out

More like 350hp for an e90 335d or about 375 for the F30.
Over 400 would include serious modifications.

Plenty have remapped the 335d on the Bimmerpost forum with a wide variety of results. There have been a couple of engine problems and smoke post-remap, but others have been running around 370bhp for many tens of thousands of miles without issue.
Personally, as I intend to run my car for another 3-4 years to somewhere close to 100k miles, I am not going to risk it, but take a look at Bimmerpost for advice.

Wow, that is impressive gains if accurate. I'm surprised that an exhaust and a stage 3 map can release so much power over a stage 1 map. I suspect it probably includes upgraded turbo. Exiting quote 410 from their stage 3 kit which include turbo upgrade. https://ecotune-scotland.co.uk/product/ecotune-35d...

Great idea and you won't be disappointed if it's done correctly and safely.
Get yourself to Simon at emaps - he has the best rep built over many years and loads of repeat customers.
On an f series 335 he maps it to a safe and reliable 370bhp and circa 520lbft torque ensuring the gearbox torque limit isn't breached. Others push closer to 400bhp but I would be slightly concerned about long term reliability.

Yes, I understand the torque limit of the gearbox fitted to the F3x 335d is 700Nm which pretty much equates to your figure of circa 520lb/ft; personally I wouldn't go for a remap that went beyond that.Get yourself to Simon at emaps - he has the best rep built over many years and loads of repeat customers.
